Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Great site, the couple who own it are great and always around for you if you need help. The fields were very muddy so we got stuck but they came straight away to help us.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Loads of space, pitch where you like, even though it was pretty full everyone was respectful and no problems with noise. Toilets clean and plentiful. Friendly owners. Pizza wagon on site over bank holiday. Great site, good location.
Disliked: Could have done with a shelf or hook near sink, not the easiest to get washed when tiny sink and no hot water or anywhere to put things down.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Spacious campsite with everything you’d need and a great view over the Roaches. Toilet and shower facilities were clean despite quite a busy campsite.
Disliked: The noise from the nearby Buxton road, we didn’t realise how close it was. We still had a lovely time and the view made up for it. It’s the only reason we wouldn’t come back however as I’m sensitive to noise but rest of the family didn’t mind it.

Liked: That you could pitch anywhere on site. The toilets and showers where both clean and there was even takeaway food freshly cooked on site. Quiet time was 10pm and everyone went quiet who we was camping with. Owners where very friendly too Would deffo stay again
Disliked: Only tiny niggle is wish the ground could be a bit more level but understand that is not always possible
